The Wood Award

Natalie Wood's visit to Harvard to accept the Lampoon Worst Actress Award should be appropriately celebrated. Miss Wood, who reached the pinnacle of her career in her brilliant portrayal of the little girl in Miracle on 34th Street, understandably considers this award a fitting tribute to her thespian talents. It is be hoped that the Lampoon will take advantage of the visit by presenting, from its vast, library of movie, grants, some of Miss Wood's finest hours for the benefit of the Harvard community. Included among these we would suggest her classic ingenue as Marjorie Morningstar or at the very least her tasteful and deeply felt rendering of Gypsy Rose Lee's admirable career. Her sportsmanship in visiting the Poon has certainly improved since she pushed Tony Curtis in the drank in Sex and the Single Girl. But then again, Miss Wood has come a long way since she sat on Santa Class's lap.
